78、而即使在他们的世界里可推知,此句应是对吃昆虫的肯定。故划线句句意与C项“人们越来越接受吃昆虫”。故选C。9推理判断题。根据第四段中的 “Compared to raising cattle and more traditional livestock, insects need far less natural resources such as land and and water.”可知,与饲养牛和更传统的牲畜相比,昆虫所需的土地和水等自然资源要少得多。因此推断相对而言,养昆虫使用的水和地比较少,可以节约资源。故选D。10细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中的“Breakfasts enriche

80、, which fuel the growth of helpful gut bacteria (肠道细菌),have longer and larger benefits than probiotics(益生菌)do. ”可知,科学家们认为益生元促进有益肠道细菌的生长,比益生菌有更长久的更大的益处。因此可知益生元可以激发良好的肠道细菌。故选D。【答案】12. B 13. A 14.

81、tic(治疗的)device that can help comfort people who have problems that can lead to social isolation(隔离).”可知,这款名为paro的机器人被作为治疗性设备进行市场推广,它可以帮助安慰那些可能导致社会隔离的问题的人,因此可知Paro主要是为患者带来一丝慰藉。故选B。13推理判断题。根据第三段中的 Shibata says he tried making robotic cats and dogs. would compare the robot to real animals they had know
82、n.可知,Shibata说,他试图制造机器人猫和狗,但人们没有发现这些令人信服的。“他们期望太高了,”他说,将机器人与他们所认识的真实动物进行比较。因此推断人们对机器猫比较失望,因为他们总会将其与真猫咪作对比。故选A。14推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“When a nurse put the robot on her lap, it began to shake slightly, and Long talked to it gently. “Why are you shaking? Are you cold? she asked. The robot made a high sound,
83、and Long laughed. ”可知,当一位护士把机器人放在她的膝盖上时,机器人开始微微颤抖,Long与它轻轻交谈了很久。“你为什么发抖?你冷吗?”她问。机器人发出很高的声音,Long长时间地笑了起来。因此推断Long很关心Paro并被它的声音逗乐,说明Long很喜欢Paro。故选B。15推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“ It doesnt solve the problem that is really causing their lack of enjoyment of life.”可知,它并没有真正解决导致他们缺乏生活乐趣的问题。因此推断Bill Thomas认为Paro虽然可以为孤

96、 doing.”为固定用法,意为“涉及,卷入,牵扯到.”,其中的in可省略,后面要填动词的ing形式,故空格处填touching。42考查定语从句。句意:穆斯林的“salaam的行额手礼,在这个礼节里他们会触碰他们的心、嘴和前额。分析句子可知,本句是定语从句,其中的“salaam 是先行词,在定语从句中作抽象的地点,即in the“salaam,此时可填副词where。故填where。43考查固定用法。句意: 印度教徒双手合十,恭敬地低下头。 分析句子可知,空格处与resect一起在句中作状语,修饰动词bow their heads。“in /with+名词”相当一个副词,所以“with/in
97、 respect”意“恭敬地,尊敬地”相当于一个副词,在句中作状语,故本空可填in/with。44考查名词。句意:今天美国的年轻人经常用这样的表达来互相问候:.。分析句子可知,空格处在句中做主语,表示人,主语是复数形式“年轻人”,故填名词youths 。45考查语境及宾格。句意:今天美国的年轻人经常用这样的表达来打招呼:“Give me five!”。分析句子可知,空格处在句中做动词give的宾语,因此要用I的宾格形式me,故填me。指代上文提到的the product,故填it。听力原文Text1.W: Do they fit?
